Subject: [PATCH] core: fix invalid free() in killall()
84b277
84b277
static int killall(....) in ./src/core/killall.c tries to get "s"
84b277
initialized by calling get_process_comm(...) which calls
84b277
read_one_line_file(...) which if it fails will mean it is left
84b277
uninitialized.
84b277
It is then used in argument to strna(s) call where it is
84b277
dereferenced(!), in addition to nothing else initializing it before
84b277
the scope it is in finishes.
